Clean and quiet, well stocked, unfortunately the seating area was insufficient and very uncomfortable. There needs to be deeper cleaning of wooden walls ie...dust, cobwebs. Everything else was clean. More dish cloths, towels needed.

Cabin near the Cabot Trail

This place was, in a word, okay. Not great, not awful. We stayed in a 1-bedroom cabin. The furnishings were tired and outdated but clean. The location was good - close to the Cabot Trail. Would I stay there again? Probably not.

Decent Stay.

Nice updated cabin. Clean and well equipped. Tucked away in the woods down a long gravel driveway. Not very scenic location, but accetable given the price point.

Really enjoyed our stay. The place was clean and well maintained. Short walk to the beach which was nice. Would recommend that housekeeping cleans during your stay. Would be nice to have a shower outside to clean sand off our feet when returning from the beach. Definitely recommend the place and would go back.
